Attention Ladies & Gentlemen: Our Next Tourist Attraction: The McCarter ZOO!

As I said in the last post, the McCarters have a new baby.....BUT we had to change her name. It was Bon Qui Qui and we were going to call her Bonnie. However, Aubrie insisted on calling her Bonnah...I just couldn't see it....SOOO...reintroducing.....Foxie Roxie (we call her Roxie). We've had her a week tomorrow and she just fits right in with our family!!! Look closely at this one and you can see one of our other animals. Santa brought the girls 2 male hamsters....Aubrie's is NEMO and Kaitlyn's is JONAS. Poor little things have been kind of neglected since Roxie came along!Here is their princess castle (cage).

Plus we also have a Beta fish named Lola (hence the ZOO comment)! It was my intention to JUST have a fish, but when your kids start asking for more pets....what can I say....we're suckers!!!

The girls and I got our Valentine gift early!


This is the newest member of our family....Bon Qui Qui McCarter (we're gonna call her Bonnie). She is an 8 week old Matipoopoo....I know! Silly name.....that's 1/4 Matisse (I really don't know how to spell that) and 3/4 poodle! She's precious and as you can see you can't even tell she has eyeballs.....she's so black.

First post of the New Year!

Well, I've been waiting to upload all the pics from my mom's camera to this post...BUT...since I see that isn't happening, I figured I would go ahead and put these out!
Kaitlyn got an Ipod for her bday and Aubrie had to check it out! Shhh! Don't tell big sister!Look at this sweet girl! I could just eat her up!






She got a rocking chair from my grandparents to match her table and chairs and toy box! She loves it! She looks so sweet in it!


I hope this is the beginning of another childhood prodigy! Poppy, are you proud?!

Me and Aubrie taking pics of ourselves.
This would have been cute if she hadn't put her hand up!


Michael and I got each a Wii Guitar Hero Rock Band thingy! Whatever its called! We are sooo addicted! Both of us just big kids ourselves!

Emma loves to sing with the band!
Here are some attempts of getting some pics of the girls in their dresses Mimi made!
Thanks Mimi! Not one of them looking at the camera...but still the best one!!!
Here's another toy Emma got from Santa. I can't resist these pics right out of the tub. I didn't pose her for this...but she ran from me while I was trying to get her dressed and well you know...photo shoot!This was right before she ran!

Emma has really been into watching Dora and The Wiggles lately! I hate to start her on TV so early, but what do you do when the sisters watch it!? Check out mommy's new pink laptop from Santa in the background! Thank you, Santa!!Another big moment in E's life....she started Kiddie Kollege at our church 2 days a week this month. She is adjusting well! Here she is on her first day!Aubrie started gymnastics! This was taken before she went to her first class!My little DIVA! Strike a pose...there's nothin' to it!Had to pose in front of our Barbie convertible before leaving! On our way with her Princess "fermos" (thermos)
"Watch me, mommy"Mimi bought Aubrie and Emma matching dresses like this one Emma is wearing and I tried to get them together, but couldn't....So try to imagine how cute they were!Kaitlyn is becoming quite the little social light this year! Here she is with her friend Abby who spent the night the other night! They had fun!
